Pool waterfalls are a natural-looking way to decorate your pool. They are usually made of fake rock and are designed to emulate real waterfalls.

    Ledge Waterfall

  1. Ledge waterfalls have a protruding ledge over which the water cascades like a translucent sheet into your pool. Some create a white water effect when the waterfall collides with the pool.
  2. Natural Rock Waterfall

  3. This style is designed to look like a rock mound from which water trickles out of smaller holes and pours out of a larger hole in the center of the rock.
  4. Boulder Style Waterfall

  5. The boulder style has fake rocks that are carved to resemble two or three stacked boulders instead of rocks. Water falls out of the boulders in a way similar to both the ledge waterfall and the natural rock waterfall.
  6. Flagstone Waterfall

  7. This style of waterfall is not as natural as the others. A wall is built out of stacked flagstone and a small pool is placed on top, which shoots out a water sheet similar to the ledge waterfall.
  8. Torch Attachments

  9. Any type of pool waterfall can become exotic at night with torch attachments. Pool waterfall torches use citronella oil and are pretty safe.
